Summary

GitLab CE/EE from 18.3 before 19.3.6, from 19.4 before 19.4.3, and from 19.5 before 19.5.1 is affected. Due to improper trust of user-supplied values when constructing endpoint URLs in cached discovery responses, an unauthenticated user can poison a shared cache's OAuth/OIDC discovery document. Under certain conditions, this redirects certain flows to an externally controlled server. The issue is tracked as CWE-444.
